Paternity fraud, also known as misattributed paternity or paternal discrepancy, occurs when a man is incorrectly identified as the biological father of a child.

It has become one of the trending topics on social media and among Nigerians. Several men have been advised to take a DNA test so as to avoid raising a child that doesn’t belong to them.

In the thread that was shared by @AnnangQueen on Twitter, she disclosed that her friend had an affair with another guy who she identified as a ‘friend’ of hers.

She claimed that she never had the intention of having intercourse with ‘the friend’, albeit, due to the unfortunate incident that unraveled on that day such as heavy rainfall and the lateness of time, she was unable to go home. Debbie in the WhatsApp conversation also mentioned that her ‘friend’ did not have an umbrella, hence, she had to stay behind.

While she was at his residence, they had sex and unfortunately, he impregnated her.

After soliciting for advise from her friend, @AnnangQueen who is the narrator of the thread, she perceived she was judged and instead preferred not to invite her to wedding ceremony which took place two months afterwards.
